Outlines  that  resemble  each  other,

PREFACE. 


V) 

b 


There  would  be  little  reason  for  this  book  if,  in  practice,  shorthand 
writers  were  given  time  enough  to  draw  each  character.  But  as  the  main 
purpose  of  phonography  is  to  admit  of  verbatim  writing,  the  reporter,  in 
his  endeavor  to  keep  up  with  a  rapid  speaker,  makes  many  of  the  charac- 
ters if  not  incorrectly  at  least  so  hurriedly  as  to  lose  accurate  resemblance 
to  their  original  form.  Not  infrequently  some  of  them  are  made  wrong — 
quite  unlike  what  he  would  have  made  had  he  not  been  in  a  hurry. 

So  it  is  that  the  real  measure  of  stenographic  skill  lies  more  in  the 
ability  to  read  bad  notes  than  in  writing  good  ones;  or  if  they  can  not 
be  read,  the  expert,  by  the  exercise  of  good  judgment  in  reconstruction 
or  substitution,  can  generally  produce  a  satisfactory  transcript.  But  the 
inexpert,  when  "stuck,"  is  often  helpless,  and  ignominiously  fails. 

The  purpose  of  this  book  is  to  enable  shorthand  writers  to  read  badly 
written  notes. 

By  the  method  here  used  of  classifying  outlines  that  look  alike,  and 
translating  them  into  all  probable  English  words  into  which  they  can  be 
translated,  the  reporter  should  be  able  to  find,  under  the  appropriate  head, 
the  character  he  intended  to  make  and  the  word  it  stands  for. 

The  working  vocabulary  of  the  ordinary  speaker  consits  of  less  than 
2000  words.  This  book  contains  approximately  13,000  words,  represented 
by  about  3200  outlines. 

I  have  endeavored  to  avoid  cumbering  this  list  with  words  in  the 
past  tense  requiring  merely  halving  of  the  stem  to  add  final  t  or  d;  or 
with  plural  forms  (requiring  only  the  addition  of  s),  unless  the  outlines 
represent  other  words,  as,  "ticket,"  the  outline  for  which  would  likewise 


be  the  past   tense   of   "talk"   and   "tuck";    "reduce,"  the   outline   for  which 
would   also   represent  the  plural   forms  of   "road,"   "rod,"    etc. 

For  reasons  that  will  be  obvious  to  the  experienced  reporter  no  at- 
tempt has  been  made  to  place  the  outlines  in  "position."  Line  position, 
like  shading,  affords  a  slight  aid  in  translation:  the  chief  dependence  of 
the  stenographer  must  always  be  in  outline  and  in  context.  And  this 
book  is  designed  for  practical  reporters,  not  for  mere  learners  or  phonog- 
raphic draftsmen.  While  sufficient  allowance  has  been  made  for  the 
possibility  of  writing  slightly  wrong  forms  under  pressure  of  high  speed 
(see  the  words  and  letters  in  parentheses),  it  is  yet  assumed  that  the 
writer  knows  the  fundamentals  of  his  system  and  writes  by  some  sort 
of  rule.  This  book  can  hardly  be  expected  to  aid  in  tracing  an  outline 
"beginning  with  hook-r  when  the  writer  has  made  hook-/,  or  has  written 
.-a  circle  on  the  wrong  side  of  a  straight  letter.  But  if  the  character  is 
fundamentally  right,  it  should  be  easily  traced,  and  the  required  word 
iound.  Thus  the  possibilities  of  a  character  that  looks  like  p  n-hook  is 
.^exhausted  in  the  nineteen  outlines  pn,  pnt,  pntr,  pshn,  bn,  bnd,  bndr,  tn, 
tint,  tntr,  dn,  dnd,  dndr,  dshn,  rn,  rnt,  sn,  snt,  sshn,  representing  more 
than  a  hundred  words. 

Of  course  I  have  aimed  at  perfection,  but  am  conscious  that  I  have 
not  achieved  it  in  this  first  attempt  at  gathering  Similar  Outlines.  Still 
an  experience  of  more  than  thirty  years  as  a  shorthand  teacher  and 
reporter  justifies  me  in  offering  to  the  profession  this  fruit  of  my  experi- 
ence, imperfect  tho  it  may  be. 
Boston,  January  1,  1911.  WILLIAM  HICKOX.

Rules  for  Phrasing 

1.  The  first  word  of  a  phrase  should  begin  in  its  normal 
position  to  the  line  of  writing. 

2.  Phrase  only  words  that  have  a  natural  connection,  i.  e., 
that  occur  frequently  together  in   speech. 

3.  Phrase  only  words  that  admit  of  a  sharp  angle  at  the 
point  of  joining,  or  can  be  easily  distinguished  by  shading,  or 
by  curves   running  in   opposite  directions. 

4.  Medially    and    finally   words    that   are    phrased    in    the 
present  tense  should  not  be  phrased  in  the  past  when  the  forms 
for  both  are  alike;  as  I  can,  not  I  could   (unless  followed  by 
not)  ;  I  may,  not  I  might;  I  find,  not  I  found;  I  think,  not  I 
thought;  I  send,  not  I  sent;  I  don't,  not  I  didn't. 

Many  words  having  the  same  outline  can  be  translated  by 
the  fact  of  phrasing  or  not.  For  example,  if  the  reporter,  fol- 
lowing the  above  rule,  phrase  words  in  the  present  tense  and 
never  in  the  past,  when  the  outlines  are  similar,  then  by  neg- 
ative inference  he  can  translate  them  when  phrased  or  written 
separately. 

Only  by  long  experience  can  the  reporter  be  certain  that 
words  that  make  a  good  joining  occur  together  with  sufficient 
frequency  to  justify  phrasing.  When  in  doubt,  do  not  phrase. 
It  is  better  not  to  phrase  enough  than  to  phrase  too  much. 

The  following  list  of  words  to  phrase  or  not  to  phrase 
will  be  found  helpful :

No  one 
In  excess 
Say   (following  "  can  not," 
or  "do  not") 
In  the  course  (unless  the

Those,  except  when  "who" 
follows 

Thus,  except  when  fol- 
lowed by  "far" 

Well,  except  in  "as  well 
as"  and  phrases  ending 
with  "be  well,"  as  "it 
may  be  well,"  "it  would

ter," "over  (the)  world,"

possibility  of  conflict  with 
an  initial  or  final  hook,

flicts with  un  prefix,  as 
"not  able  to"  (unable  to)

Vocalizing,  and  the  Affix  "Fulness' 


Dot-tn<7  should  be  written  after  contractions  whose  con- 
sonant forms  would  be  so  changed  by  writing  stroke-in^  as  to 
conflict  with  other  words,  as  advertising,  railroading,  coming. 

Half-length  straight  letters  (not  grammalogues)  without 
hooks  or  circles  should  generally  be  voweled,  as  pit,  bad,  dead, 
act,  caught,  goad,  etched,  aged. 

Always  vowel  aid,  age,  defence,  devise-ce  (e),  expand, 
expansion  (e).  They  conflict  with  do,  large,  advise-ce,  ex- 
plained, explanation. 

Vowel  "field"  not  "ville"  as  the  terminal  of  towns. 

Vowel  uncommon  words  whose  outlines  are  not  distinctive. 
Only  the  first  vowel  is  usually  needed. 

Disjoin  ns  for  final  "fulness,"  as  in  usefulness,  thought- 
(not  thank)  fulness,  faithfulness,  bashfulness,  fruitfulness  (join 
u),  fretfulness,  truthfulness,  playfulness,  artfulness,  cheerful- 
ness, forgetfulness,  watchfulness,  wakefulness,  youthfulness. 

After  half-length  p-b,  t-d,  ns  is  disjoined  only  for  "ness," 
as  aptness,  badness,  straightness.

Why  pupils  prefer  to  learn  on  the

Why  commercial  educators  find  it  to
